SSG Jessie is a combat medic, runner and mother. When you hear the phrase “she can do both,” I like to think she can do more than both — she can do a lot! Aside from those three things, she’s also had a career in accounting before she joined the military in her early 30’s. She also explains how preparing for the military cultivated her interest in distance running which led to her competing in marathons.
